This may augment transmural heterogeneity of repolarization intrinsic to ventricular myocardium and, as a consequence, prolong the QT and JT intervals on the electrocardiogram (ECG).

The Normal ECG. A normal ECG contains waves, intervals, segments and one complex, as defined below. Wave: A positive or negative deflection from baseline that indicates a specific electrical event ...

The QT interval is a measurement on the ECG that represents how long it takes for the heart to recover after it contracts before it's ready to contract again.

Researchers at Mayo Clinic suggest that the established “normal” ranges for evaluating electrocardiograms for persons over 80 years old should be “revisited.” The recommendation comes in a ...

A simple electrocardiogram (ECG) can pinpoint hospitalized COVID-19 patients at high risk of death who might need intensive management. That's the finding of a study presented at EHRA 2022, a ...

In simple terms, a QT interval measures the length of time between the start of the Q-wave and the end of the T-wave. ... Using an ECG is the most common way to diagnose QT prolongation.

PHILADELPHIA—Abnormalities revealed by electrocardiography (ECG) may predict which patients undergoing evaluation for a renal transplant are at higher risk of death, a study found. These ...

In the genetically modified heart xenotransplant (“pig heart-in-human body”) the first ever ECG showed a longer PR interval (190 ms), QRS duration (138 ms), and QT interval (538 ms) in the ...
